[Sorry, folks. I guess I was so tired last night I never hit the send button! Here’s is the post from last night. This does NOT count as today’s post, which will go out tonight, as usual. So, from last night:]
Today, Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett to take Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's seat on the Supreme Court.
The rest of the news can wait.
Rest up, everyone. It's going to be rough ride for awhile.

As the Jewish New Year is upon us, I will be suspending all news coverage as of sundown tonight. It will resume tomorrow evening, so whatever you post will have to wait. You have given me such hope in a time of deep despair, even if your messages are sometimes dire. Your calm and reasoned approach is very uplifting to me, and it helps to know that whatever happens and whatever I wake up to, my heart is still beating and my mind is still functioning. You have helped keep me going despite all of the attempts to derail me. Thank you, Heather, if I may be more familiar in addressing you. And to all of you, I wish you peace and the strength to persevere in this adversity.
Actually, I just had a thought for you, Heather. Rather than feeling obligated to post things on the weekend...Don’t. Either that, or set up some sort of robo-posts that automatically send a short message with a new photo every Saturday and Sunday. Even the best of us need guilt-free days off.
